THE Martinsburg INDEPENDENT is
just entering its seventeenth year, and is
as bright and spicy, and sometimes al
most as saucy, as a young lady at that
age. 1t is right good paper, whose ed
itor has opinions of his own and he does
not care who knows it, or who finds ont
what they are, bat he expresses them
with rare good humor, and never allows
them to degenerate into blackguardism.
We are determined, II possible, to make
better paper than the INDEPENDENT,
but we do not claim to have succeeded.

who for reasons known only to them

men will participate in the parade.
The citizens of Martinsburg likewise
will have bicycle parade in connection
with the Fourth of July celebration.
CORPORATION ELEc TIoN.--Great in

Mrs. Mary Ryan Refuses to Answer
Lawyers Question.

There was large crowd in Judge Loeb
ren's courtroom Yesterday afternoon when
the case of George Ripley, indicted for
committing adultery with Mrs. Mary Ryan,
better known as Georgia Diamond" an
inmate of First street house of ill-fame,
was called. Ripley, fairly good looking
man with red mustache and bald head.
sat in an easy position, and occasionally
leaned over and talked with friends. He
was arrested at the instance of his wife last
winter by Sergt. Nelson. The officer who
made the arrest stated that when he went
to the house he found Ripley and Mrs.
Ryan in the same room in an almost COM
plete state of undreSs. Mrs. Ryan, when
placed on the stand. looked decidedly I'M
comfortable. She was dressed in a neat
fitting suit of gray, and wore a white
veil, which nearly hid her eyes, but
failed to cover her blushing face. Some of
the questions asked her she did not answer,
and simply looked down and nervously
pulled the edge of her skirt. To one par
ticularly delicate question she replied that
she did not think that there was anything
that could compel her to answer, and an
swer she would not. Ripley watched her
nervously, and more than once, when their
eyes met, both smiled slightly. At the
conclusion OF her testimony the question as
to whether the woman had ever been legally
married to Ryan or not came up and was
discussed at some length, and continuance
was taken until to-day in order that the
state might obtain further proof Of the mar
rage OF Mr.. and Mrs. Ryan. az {

The Athen3um.

The annual meeting of the stockholders
of the Atheneum library was held yester-
day afternoon. The report of the secretary
showed the number of subscribers entitled
to draw books from the library to be 500.
During the past year 25,471 volumes have
been issued. The total number of volumes
now in the library is IA, $50. Acting under
authority given at the last annual
meeting, the directors sold the library
building to Dexter Richards for $2l, 100.
At the time of sale it was discovered that a
tax title to the property, secured by Oliver
Stewart in 1874, and never presented for
settlement, was yet unpaid. Mr.. Stewart
demanded SIS, 900 for Quitclaim deed, but
finally accepted $500. The directors have
paid S. $40 on building bonds issued when
their building was erected. leaving ST.
460 in bank, of which $4,000 will be used
to pay their subscription to the new library
building. Owing to crowded quarters
there have been but few books purchased
during the past year. The directors have
$4,000 to eXpend for new books next year.
The old board of directors was reelected
for the ensuing term.

WILLIAM ADEmAR ACQUITTED.
A Jury Decides That He rs Inno-
cent of Assault.

William Ademar, the gambler, who re-
Gently INDUCED in shooting affray with
Mel Fitz, another card manipulation, sat in
the district COURT room yesterday and lis
tened calmly to the case against him. He
had been indicted for assault in the second
degree. as had Mel FitZ, but when Fitz was
acquitted Tuesday Ademar Sid he felt
quite hopeful. Numerous witnesses We're
sworn in regard to the shooting, but none
were able to state positively that the two men
had shot at each other. The jury was out
but few minutes and returned a verdict of
not guilty. There is peculiar circum-
stance connected with this case which is not
unnteresting. Some days after the shoot
ing took place it was arranged that both
Fitzand Ademar should plead guilty to shoot
ing inside the city limits and to disorderiy
conduct, and pay fine of $50 each. After
this arrangement had been made Z. D.
O'Brien, of st. Paul, while in Minneapolis,
met Judge Lochren, who is trying the
criminal cases, and during the conversation
stated that Mrs. O'Brien was near the men
when they began shooting and was badly
frightened.
THAT puts different face on the mat

that outsiders had been in danger, but now
that know they have, guess we will have
to try those men,"

fill the place of the former detective force,
and its announcement. created broad
smile at police headquarters. The idea
that patrolman is to be snatched from his
beat to look up case and then returned
seems very much as though the commission
thought ''crime" to be some commodity
done up in package, which an officer need
only be sent after. Heretofore the pres
ence of all crooks and confidence men, and
their doings, have been carefully noted. In
addition to the six detectives there has
been detail of five patrolmen in citizens
clothing who have visited places where
police in uniform and patrol wagons could
not go. The result has been that the GRIM
inal classes have been held more thoroughly
in check than ever before owing to this
system of surveillance, which is the same as
is in vogue in New York and other large
cities. Yesterday was very quiet at police
headquarters. Capt. Buerfening was in
command, but gave few orders. Col. Hill
was not detailed to beat as expected, but
was on hand to go on duty as patrolman
when ordered.
